Masato Nei's eyes lit up, and soon he was sweating again.
Although the Beihai Pass is not as majestic and majestic as the Yanqi Fortress to the west, it is also one of the famous strong passes in Yunchuang.
It is difficult to overcome under normal circumstances.
It is located at the junction of the three countries.
It reaches the Baekje Peninsula in the east, the Bukxiong Prairie in the north, and controls the vast black land in the north of Yunchui in the south. It is also connected to the vast expanse of blue waves in the East China Sea.
】
It can be said that status is very important.
"General," Masato Nei thought for a while and suddenly looked at the Golden Dragon Beach on the map, "It will snow on the Baekje Peninsula soon."
Seeing that he understood what he meant, the smile on Ishikawa Taki's face became even brighter.
"That's right, it snowed less than half a month ago in Baekje and the northeastern part of Unjue."
Masato Nei nodded slightly.
He groped his chin, and the more he thought about it, the brighter his eyes became.
Although Baekje is small, when it snows, the army can hardly move.
When the time comes, no matter how tyrannical the Starfall Legion is, they won't be able to move.
The general stationed at Beihaiguan is a famous "lying yellow" in Yunchuizhong, so there is no need to worry about it at all.
There are enough winter supplies stored in Beihaiguan. As long as they are snatched away, the soldiers will not have to starve and freeze.
And because the mountains were blocked by heavy snow, neither the direction of Baekje nor the direction of Unjue was able to support them. They could use this long winter to consolidate the city defense and use Beiquan as the strongest and strongest stronghold in the future.
This is much more reliable than just grabbing any county town with good ventilation from all sides in Huayang County as a stronghold.
When spring comes next year and the flowers bloom, the Xingluo Legion and Xiao Zheng stationed in Baekje will soon be out of food.
As the saying goes, if there is no food in hand, the army will panic.
When you're hungry, even if you're as strong as Xingluo, you're still vulnerable.
At that time, the Yamato soldiers were divided into three groups, fighting from the east coast to the west, from Jinlongtan to the north, and from Beiquan to the east, to capture the entire Baekje Peninsula in one fell swoop.
Thinking of this, Masato Nei and Taki Ishikawa looked at each other.
Their eyes fell on the sea east of Baekje.
Regardless of the size of the ships in this era, they were almost all made of wood and relied on manual labor to row, making it difficult to withstand slightly larger winds and waves.
Migrating from the mainland to the waters on the east coast of Baekje, countless Yamato ships and people have been lost.
Therefore, it is much safer and more reliable to land on the East Sea of Baekje than to sail directly to the coast of Unjue.
boom!
Masato Nei punched the table hard and puffed up his chest.
"General, I understand. I will fight to the death and seize Beihaiguan after setting off tomorrow."
Chatting with smart people is relaxing and enjoyable.
"Very good." Ishikawa Taki patted his shoulder with satisfaction.
"But there is still a question." He walked to the map and stared deeply at the surrounding sea, "Where is the East China Sea barrier now?"
If the two fleets happen to encounter each other when Masato Rooti leads the team north, there will be trouble.
————
East China Sea Barrier.
The main ship, the Protector.
"General," Vice Admiral Xin Ou rushed to Lu Fuhai's side, "The ships have been renovated. Can we set off back home?"
Lu Fuhai raised his head and glanced at the icy Golden Dragon Beach, "Have you explained the reason to the brothers you left behind?"
The previous Yulong fleet had returned to Pinghai County. There could not be a single warship in the sea outside Jinlongtan, so Lu Fuhai left a new fleet for Xiao Zheng.
"I've already said it." Yu Xin'ou laughed, "Wan Shilei cursed that broken stone, but he didn't object."
"Yeah." Lu Fuhai understood.
He remembered this Wan Shilei.
After the storm in Baekje at the end of June, Ishikawa Taki took the opportunity to make a sneak attack on Golden Dragon Beach.
At that time, all the ships in the East China Sea Barrier were tied together and unable to move, so Wan Shilei was the first to break out in his Panshi.
With only one war camp class ship, Wan Shilei fearlessly launched a charge towards the Japanese pirates' "ship bridge", eventually destroying one of the enemy's ship bridges and also crashing two war camp class ships.
After that battle, the Panshi's hull was severely damaged and it was withdrawn from active service.
Lu Fuhai saw this and with a wave of his hand, Wan Shilei was upgraded to a general-level commander.
Now the "Panshi" fleet has been left behind to help Xiao Zheng defend the waters off Jinlongtan.
"Send the order, pull up the anchor and lift the ship, let's return home!"
Wow!
The command flag flew on the mast, and Lu Fuhai's order was quickly transmitted.
Ula~
The sea water next to the Lord Protector was roaring, and the northwest wind was blowing loudly in the sky.
However, Lu Fuhai could still clearly hear the loud cheers coming from the sailors on each ship.
He couldn't help but smile, but when he thought about his future, he couldn't help but worry again.
But no matter what, the huge fleet slowly started to move towards the west.
————
The ocean is 200 miles east of Jiuyuan County.
The fishing boats are dozens of miles apart, arranging from east to west, almost spanning the entire ocean as far as the eye can see.
These are the eyes sent by Mo Canghai.
Huhu~
A cold and biting northwest wind blew.
Ji Heituo, who was sitting high on the mast, shivered and quickly gathered his thick cotton clothes.
"God, this bastard is so cold..."
He complained a few words, then lowered his head and looked at the deck, "Lao He, how long are we going to stay?"
These fishing boats have been out for more than half a month, and there are not many materials in the cabin.
Lao He didn't answer, just laughed.
"How many months has it been and you already feel cold?"
"I have the nerve to call it Heitu, why not change it to Baihua from the South, Guangxin or Canglan."
Ji Heitu smiled, couldn't help but stood up and even opened his chest.
Indeed, it is only early November, and no one born in the three northeastern counties of Yumu, Yanhui and Jinghu is afraid of the cold.
Huh~
What are those black spots to the east?
Ji Heitu's heart trembled, and he climbed up a few more steps of the mast.
"Old Commander," he shouted loudly: "A huge fleet is coming from the east. It's so densely packed that I can't even count how many there are."
Lao He was startled and climbed up like a monkey.
laugh.
He took a breath and said, "There are so many ships. You are young, can you see the flags on them clearly?"
Those who came from the east at this time were most likely the East China Sea Barrier returning from Baekje.
They couldn't make a mistake.
Hold!
Ji Heitu spat in disgust.
"See clearly. All they are flying are dog ointment flags. They are the fleet of Japanese pirates!"
But how did they come from the east?
The Sishan Islands should be in the south.
Lao He did not answer, but after carefully analyzing the number of fleets in the distance, his expression became more serious.
After rummaging through his backpack, he took out two cloud-piercing arrows.
However, after thinking about it, he took out another one.
Rest, rest, rest.
In an instant, three brilliant fireworks exploded in the sky.
Soon, fireworks bloomed one after another from east to west, spreading the news of the Japanese pirates' attack.
"Heitu," Lao He slid down the mast. Seeing Ji Heitu was still on top in a daze, he suddenly lost his temper. "Don't you want to go ashore? What are you doing in a daze? Come down and row the boat."
Their mission has been completed and they can evacuate at this time.
The Japanese pirates are still far away now, and if they don't leave, it will be too late.
